EHM-1465 Dominic:
Joshua,

Have you tried the other FS2004 air file by Pedro Oliveira as I mentioned in that thread (2 years ago - no wonder I'd forgotten about it!)..?

EHM-2309 Joshua:
I did as search for it on AVSIM, and used the link, and that file is not avaliable anymore. I used the 2002 .air file today, and managed to fly across most of the atlantic!! I ran out of fuel, and had to ditch it in the sea after a long descent!!! Also, when cruising, the plane has a pitch of about 7 degrees.

EHM-1001 Robert:
Hi Joshua !

I think I had similar issues with the Concorde but then I was able to fly her... it is funny because I do not remember these bugs from those days when the plane was inserted into the fleet. I did not had such problems when I spent enough time on the ground: needed for fuel balancing process, and also when I setted flight dynamics mode to "Easy" in the FS2004 settings. Nowadays I fly with "Difficult" settings and flying the Concorde is really hard with this settings.

EHM-2309 Joshua:
ok, Concorde flies nicely now. A couple more questions, what should the fuel flow scaler be? mine is 1.35 at the moment. Also, how do you change the cruising pitch angle of the aircraft? or should it fly at about 7-10 degrees?

EHM-1001 Robert:
It is not so easy.

The fuel flow scalar should be adjusted after everything is fine with the dynamics ! This will define your range. If you feel the range is too short, then decrease it with 1-2 tence.

The high pitch angle or AOA is a result of bad dynamics. Many parameters can effect to it, that is why the 2004 dynamics were released by Pedro to solve this problem. You could also try air-file from Libardo Guzman's brand new Concorde model. You can find it probably on AVSIM or FSPlanet.
